And the war goes on.

Yes, Gentle Reader the sad truth is that President Bush really doesn't get it. He thinks that he will get his way and will show every one just how wrong they are in opposing his will.

Sadly a lot more young men and woman are going to die with nothing to show for an accomplishment. As it stands this war is going to give us two results. Strengthening Irans position in the middle east and a generation of young people that are going to have cases of post traumatic stress syndrome. The like hasn't been seen since the end of the Vietnam conflict.

The sad part in all this is that our young people that are in this fight truly want to believe that what they are doing is a good thing. You can hear it in their voices. See it in their eyes. That precious hope that someone, somewhere, has an idea that what is going on, is all to the good. My heart goes out to these young people for believing as they do. I really hope that I will be wrong. That victory is just around the corner. The increase in troops is what is needed.

I sincerely would like to have the faith that our young people have put in this President. With out that implicit faith the war would be harder. But lets be real here. The generals have stated that there is no need to increase troop levels. Yes, troops on the ground says we need more. Being on the ground and fighting a small part of the war does not give a good perspective on what is needed.

I guess President Bush has decided that as the troops on the ground who are agreeing with him must be right. This is a poor way to set policy or even on how to prosecute a war. Is it any wonder this White House is increasingly isolated and embattled.

The republicans beat up on the democrats for not doing everything. Yet, President Bush idea of consultation is to simply inform the Senators and Congresspeople what is going to happen. Is this any wonder that the democrats are leery of working with the republicans?

But they must and every one knows it. Except President Bush and the White House. No this President believes he says it and every one follows. So a war that is going no where. Our enemies that have been embolden to act against us at every turn.

A White House that is using arguements that got former President Nixon impeached. Well Gentle Reader, I feel betrayed by this President insistence that he will do as He wants and bedamned to any who dare disagree.

I can only hope that these next two years goes by fast.

Ending the War

The above link will take you to columnist who has mad the agreement that if we want this insane war to end, It will be up to us the American public. A certain amount that she say, or rather writes, make sense. We put the dems in to office. At least a vast majority has.

However compelling her argument has been or will be. She has said that in future articles are going to be on stopping the war and just how much we have been deceived. As well as being deceived to this time. All this is sounding good. As far as it goes. Now will come the big question. Is there enough willingness on the part of America to end this war? Because it will take Sheenan type of protest.

This insane war is being ramped up Gentle Readers. Oh yes even as I blog this more troops are on their way to Iraq. Tomorrow Our Dear Leader President Bush is going to try and sell us all on this as a good idea. No, we the American public have been betrayed. Betrayed by an Administration that cares only for its own agenda.

The dems doing what all politicians do. Breaking thier word. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has said that that the free ride is over. No more blank checks. Sounds like slogans to me. Worse like rhetoric. Rhetoric that will see more of our young men and women die in a war that is illegal and morally wrong.

The question that conservatives have always thrown into my face. At least Saddam is gone and that is a good thing. No. Sadly. No it is not. The execution showed how wrong that was. Iraq is not better off without that old murderer. Iraq is far worse off now than when that murdering scum was in charge. Ironic. That sick feeling we are experiencing is because this President has screwed up and now is too pigheaded to admit he is wrong.

Worse the democrates are poised to sell us down the river for political gains. Stand up America and Demand the end of this war. Demand that we bring our troops home. Demand that President Bush be held accountable. We turned up in record numbers in an off season voting to register our ire. After Wednesday we shall see what the democrats will do.

The republicans are running scared. The democrats are thinking that they know what we want. We shall see. We shall see.
